6 Stonefly Specimens in the Family Perlodidae:
Arcynopteryx compacta Stonefly Nymph
View 11 PicturesThis large Perlodidae stonefly was a strikingly bright yellow color, moreso than any other insect I've seen. I didn't enhance it much. I tried identifying its genus and came up with Arcynopteryx, which lives a couple thousand miles from where I collected this one, so I'm stuck.

Isoperla (Yellow Sallies) Stonefly Adult
View 10 PicturesSeveral stoneflies of this species were flying around a small stream last night. I tied on a brown drake imitation of about the right size/color to approximate these stones, and was rewarded with a hard-fighting 17-inch brown trout.
